why doesn't MC Lyte get her respect for being an elite emcee ?

[gho3st]

Nicki got bars, but your list other than RHAPSODY and Mia X I hear

but my nicca, are you actually trying to tell me mothafukking GloRilla is more lyrical than MC LYTE,

what you on, dope or dog food ?

which part of the south you from?

 

[Barney Rubble]

Because I cried when I found out BDK was behind the magic.

This. Can't call anyone with writers an elite emcee.

nah nicca, you can't get away from saying GloRilla is better than MC Lyte

explain yourself dog

 

[O.Red]

fair enough breh

Yeah Lyte is more known than Kool G Rap, but the flipside is she was pigeonholed into a female rapper instead of just a rapper

If MC Lyte were a man she would get more credit for her bars in her prime

I don't know nearly enough about Lyte's catalogue or bars to have a dog in that fight

 

[Awesome Wells]

breh, unlike most Coli-posters I don't pretend to know everything

what does that even mean "certain shyt" I "should know"

Keep it civil dog

I already asked about if she ever had a battle, but again most Coli posters are too prideful to ask questions, I'm not

I can't help my age, I'm familiar with 80s rap but I grew up on 90s rap and 2000s rap

it is what it is

I didn't even read your post, just the thread title, lol.

So I wasn't speaking about you. But yeah, in Hip Hop, there's just certain sh*t people should know. It's cultural history.

Lyte had a million battles, but she was also the one other female MC's would try to emulate, in both style and flow. Her influence and impact back in the day was crazy.

that's just passive way of saying you're a hip-hop snob

what's wrong with asking rap questions in The Booth genius

instead of the know it all routine either contribute something about Lyte or leave my thread, you know you can just leave my thread fukkboy

believe it or not I guarentee there's plenty of things you don't know that you SHOULD KNOW, so miss me with the hypocrite fakkit shyt fukk nicca

I don't know when TheColi got infiltrated by posters who always try to sound smarter than they actually are

 

[Ol’Otis]

Yep
She didn’t write her shyt

 

[TripleAgent]

/thread

 

[jshani]

Same reason as most any other time. She's not active

She put out an album last year

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

She's the best female MC of all time imo.

 

[patscorpio]

She didn't get flowers while active.

Song came out, no buzz

Nah breh...that song came out and it was everywhere..thats like her last big hit

Nah, it's just a direct way of saying people should know about Lyte, lol.

The thread title isn't a question asking if she was or wasn't. It's saying that a legend, as everybody in the thread has already disputed, doesn't getting the love and respect, and then asking why.

You're taking people saying people should know this history, very personally. I posted a comment. It wasn't directed at you. I didn't even know you made this thread, lol. You gotta relax, bro.

 

[Jigganaut]

Word up. This was a big jawn for her. Man Lyte looks amazing in person and is a sweet heart. So I might be biased.

ok, I'm man enough to own up to my part as a man and squash it

enjoy your late night breh
